To the Editor: An aneurysm is a localized dilatation of a blood vessel. According to the current literature, arterial aneurysms are the most common type of aneurysm and occur within the carotid and iliac arteries; however, aneurysms can occur in any part of the vascular tree, eg, capillary microaneurysm accompanying diabetes mellitus, ventricular aneurysm following myocardial infarction, and venous aneurysm.1 Primary, or true, venous aneurysms are characterized by abnormal saccular dilatations of veins containing all three layers of the vessel wall [...] Full article

This article describes a patient with plantar fascial pain who presented to the office of one of the authors. Physical examination and the patient’s description of the history of symptoms revealed classic signs and symptoms of plantar fasciitis. The patient was treated with numerous conservative modalities, including ultrasound, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory medications, trigger-point injections, over-the-counter orthoses, and stretching exercises. When the pain was not relieved by these conservative measures, magnetic resonance imaging of the area was performed. Visualization of the insertional area of the plantar fascia revealed a mass inferior to, as well as infiltrated into, the plantar fascia. Surgical excision of the lesion resulted in complete elimination of the patient’s pain. (J Am Podiatr Med Assoc 91(2): 89-92, 2001) Full article
